Insertion effect
System effects
Chorus effect
•
The chorus effect is dedicated to chorus. It adds spacious-
ness and depth to the sound.
•
In Effect mode, you can select one of 11 Effect Types, and
modify parameter values to adjust the character of the cho-
rus. Effect mode settings are remembered independently for
each song.
•
In Pattern mode, you can use Pattern Effect settings to se-
lect one of 11 Effect Types for each pattern, and modify
parameter values to adjust the character of the chorus.
Variation effect
•
The variation effect provides 43 types of effect including
reverb and chorus, and also distortion and overdrive etc.
•
In Effect mode, you can select one of 43 Effect Types, and
modify parameter values to adjust the character of the ef-
fect. Effect mode settings are remembered independently
for each song.
•
In Pattern mode, you can use Pattern Effect settings to se-
lect one of 43 Effect Types for each pattern, and modify
parameter values to adjust the character of the effect.
System Effects and Insertion Effects
•
The effects of the effect block are divided into two types of
effect which function in completely different ways: system
effects and insertion effects.
•
On the QY700, the reverb effect and the chorus effect are
system effects, and the variation effect can be set either as a
system effect or an insertion effect.
•
In the case of a system effect, effect processing is performed
by using the mixer Send and Return controls to send sig-
nals from each tone generator Part to the effect and then
return the processed signal to the mixer.
•
In the case of an insertion effect, the effect is connected in
series between the instrument and the mixer, and adjusted
using the Dry/Wet Balance. On the QY700, an insertion
effect can be used on any one specified Part.
•
System effects and insertion effects are defined within “XG.”
This means that if you use a tone generator bearing the XG
logo, you can use effects not only in a “minimal” way by
simply applying chorus and reverb, but also in a more ag-
gressive way to create the fundamental character of the
sounds.
How the effects work
Variation mode = Insertion
•
When Variation mode is set to Insertion, the three effects
will be connected as shown in the diagram below.
•
Of the 32 parts of the tone generator block, the signals of
the part specified by the Voice mode Variation Switch
1
will be input to the variation effect, and the variation effect
will be applied here.
•
The signals of all tone generator parts including the above-
mentioned part will be sent to the reverb effect and the cho-
rus effect according to the Voice mode settings Reverb Send
Level
2
and Chorus Send Level
3
. Here you can adjust
the depth of the effect for each part.
•
To adjust the overall depth of each effect, use the Effect
mode settings Reverb Return Level
4
and Chorus Return
Level
5
. Here you can adjust the amount of the signal re-
turned from each effect, determining the overall depth of
each effect.
•
The stereo location of the effect output is determined by the
Effect mode settings Reverb Pan
6
and Chorus Pan
7
.
•
A bus line called Send Chorus To Reverb
8
connects the
chorus effect to the reverb effect. By using this bus line you
can connect the chorus effect and reverb effect in series.
